Will Davison is the new 'King of the Mountain' after claiming a dramatic and tense Bathurst 1000.

Davison, along with Jonathon Webb, survived a tense finish to the race after holding out Kiwi rival Shane van Gisbergen on the final lap.

But Davison, who finished on top from 17th spot on the grid, had victory handed to him with a late crash causing chaos in the great race.
